Hi, afaik, we as OSGeo, do not have formal procedure regarding standards, we offer some infrastructure (wiki, mailing list, maybe gitlab) and you can just "call for action" - you can then collaborate like any other project. It is very simple and gives you big freedom. That does not exclude you from adopt the standard by more formal organisations (W3C or (I would prefer it more) OGC) which makes sense
@sevenspatial would say: go public, announce early, wait a little for possible feedback, and either go on or merge with existing project which might be already there, we just do not know about. for this, OSGeo is great sandbox J út 30. 8. 2016 v 11:31 odesílatel Bruce Bannerman < bruce.bannerman.os...@gmail.com> napsal: > This is good to see Jon. > > @All how can we make this happen within OSGeo? > > Bruce > > On 30 Aug 2016, at 19:09, Jon Blower <j.d.blo...@reading.ac.uk> wrote: > > Dear all, > > > > (Second attempt at sending this, I wasn’t subscribed before!) > > > > I’m the leader of the project under which CoverageJSON is being developed > [1].
